my try at big boss so far, i think im almost done with the face, just messing arond with the bump textures.
however i cant seem to get the hair brow for some reason.
anyway next up is the suit maybe after that ill try to do one with a bandana and some face paints and camos.

You can look at my mod and if you like something incorporate it in your skin. I want nothing more than to see the best big boss mod and play with it. Maybe you could make solid snake to. Or you could send the face to me I would like to play with snake without face paint and I wouldn’t post that as my mod update it is your mod and I am not a thief. Only if you like my mod and you want it to have your face then I would be honored. You made a great face the same as I would done it, just that I don’t know with textures only a little in them. I can’t wait to play with your version of BIG BOSS.

thnx for the offer, and im glad you like the face for what ive done now.
but i always do my mods 100% from scratch.
but i wanna ask you if you have msn, maybe you could give me some tips on modding jc2,
since im new to it because im mainly a gta san andreas modder.

I respect that. And sorry but I don’t have MSN. You could contact me like this or on E-mail. PLEASE, PLEASE could you send me your Big Boss face I am desperate to play with it in JC2 I wouldn’t post it here or anywhere else it is you mod but I want to play with it. Could send it to my e-mail.

srry but you have to wait till i release the skin, which wont take long maybe 1 or 2 days.
but i have some new screens.http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/8966/updatetime.jpg
for the first uniform i chose the olive drab, since i can easily put camo over it and keep the details.
problem is i dont own the game, so im just modding the demo which means im limited to the desert and i cant see my uniform without the crappy sand all over it.

Can’t wait for you to make your mod. Then I am gonna play with the best big boss I am gonna put: – my camo
– your arms
– my fists
– your leg strap
– my bandanna or yours if you make a good one which I don’t doubt
– your hair and face of course

i finally found a place in the demo where i dont have sand on my clothing
im very pleased with the results although i have to tweak the material map of the sleeves to match the jacket.
i also added a bandana now, however i liked the one without bandana better.
also made custom normal and material maps.http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/1413/bigbossh.jpg
on my to do list is now:
fixing the material map for the sleeves so they fit with the jacket.
making new gloves,
new shoes,
new straps and belt.
after that make some camo + facepaints.

great mod can’t wait for you to release it is good with the bandana there can’t be big boss without bandana keep it up. How long while it take for you to release it? And when your done could you make an MGS 2 solid snake mod?

well i wanted to do some work on bb but i couldnt till now cuz i had to work over.
anyway if anyone could give me ricos model in a format i can open in 3ds max, or send me a model viewer i would speed up things.
as for mgs2 snake, i think it could make a texture for it, but i dont know if i want to because of the model, it doesnt really look like the sneakingsuit snake uses.

I agree it is impossible to make a good solid snake mod because of the rico model. I can’t wait for you to release the mod of Big boss. Maybe an other body not ricos for solid snake like in the rambo mod but first you just finish BIG BOSS he is the one I am waiting for

after hours of trying, i finally got the rico model in 3ds max.http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/5811/3dmax.jpg
now thing can get more interesting, this way i can check the exact details of the uv map
which means i will be able to get my new texture to fit on perfectly.
i also can check out the normal map, no color map though so that probably give me a hard time to figure out corectly since im new to normal and color maps.
anyway with this i will be able to create some really good skins.

It is taking allot for you to make the mod are there any problems? Sorry for the impatience but I would really like to play with your version of big boss I just hope you will make him with the bandanna.

srry for not updating this for a while but im back at it
anyway i think im satisfied witht eh head now
i also did a complete reskin of the body, but i just dont like the model.
so im asking if someone could put ricos head on the chinese veteran model
it has a bdu uniform with similair pouches and i think i could make it look more lik big boss
then with thw original rico model.
anyway here is the update on the head.http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/3190/snakew.png

WoooooooooW you are the greatest:cheese: please post it. You are the best modder on this site I waited a long time for you to take this mod on again I hope you will release it soon.

I know that I am boring but could you when you release it please release the bandanna version and the one without bandanna I know that he looks good with the bandanna, but could you do snake with his iconic bandanna.

I am gonna ask around but I think ricos body is better. I can’t see from the photo but I think that mod has army boots(with the pants pulled up) and snake has pants pulled down and I think if you put the rico head on that body it wouldn’t look very good with the skin color and everything but I see what you were aiming at the pouches…

I think what you pulled off is great with the limited modding you can do in JC2,so you should release it.:cheer: Because it is the best mod for JC2 that I saw can’t wait for you to release it thanks again and if you need anything feel free to ask but you must know that I am a big amateur in this.

i just checked it out, and i like it better then ricos body,
i found a mod with ricos head on it, but now i also want ricos harness on it
could some1 plz put the harness and ricos head on the chinese veteran body ?

I asked Longcat788 if he will do it because he is the man when it comes to merging Ricos head on other bodies. I hope it will look better than the Rico one because I think the Rico one is great. You’re gonna pull it off good luck!

now you are talking my language it’s perfect. It is better with the rico legs and I don’t know if the harness can be edded but it is not necessary. Damn if only I knew with the HEX editor because HEX is needed to merge head body parts. I am still waiting on Longcat788’s reply he can help for sure.

If the merging of ricos legs can’t be done then make the skin with all Rico body it is still great. But for know let’s wait on the conformation. By the way I don’t know how did you find the tiger camo but it looks amazing the same as snakes and the gloves and everything look great on the Japanese vet you can put those gloves but on the rico body you can’t. I just hope it can be done.

Maybe if you want you can just add the codec earpiece. Man when I look at your mod then I realise how lame my mods is. Can’t wait to play with big boss finaly Snake eater on the PC beside the emulator:cheer:

Big boss, I would love to merge the torso of the Imperial Japanese veteran with the Rico parts BeeswaX suggested, but I am too busy at the moment. I will be able to in a couple weeks.

BeeswaX, I don’t recommend the veteran torso, as Rico’s harness has major clipping issues with it. The combination simply looks terrible. That is just from me remembering creating the Imperial Japanese General character mod.

im getting somewhere now
just a few changes to the mpm and normal maps and the uniform will be done,
then make a few camo patterns and im gonna try to find a harness that fits.
then i only have to make a bandana and the mod will be done.

you don’t need the harness it is great and the tiger stripe is the best choice, where ever you see big boss he wears the tiger stripe just the bandanna now and it will be great.
I know you would do an awsome job :ohmy: can’t wait for you to post it!!!

By the way snake’s harness is set tight to his body not like the rico one so maybe you can do a little texturing and draw it it would look better but if it’s a too big problem forget it.

dunno about the harness yet, ill go thru all character files and try all harnesses out
i find it very easy to add parts.
i have a problem though, i still only have the demo, so i dont have all models.
i dont know if there are any models with usefull harnesses.
anyway if it fails i could try to texture it on and make and nice normal map so it comes out nicely, but the problem is i dont know exactly how the models weights are
so it could be if he moves his arms or aims a gun the harness would stretch out and look weird.
but if you want you could look thru your character files for characters with similair harnesses and show me some pics.
ill probably work on it tonight and i will make a few more camos, one for every part of panau
so we will have
standard: tigerstripe
jungle: leaf
desert: chocochip (or desert tiger dunno yet)
mountains: snow
sea: water
city/urban: splitter
i also wanna do some facepaints but dunno which ones yet still thinking.
anyway i expect the release around new year

As far as I know there aren’t any harnesses that would look like snakes so maybe you should try the trextured ones. And please don’t forget the bandana, about the face it think no face paint is the best but if you want to put th face camos then put:
-No face paint
-Splitter
-Woodland
-Zombie
maybe -desert

Those are the ones that look the best all the others aren’t that good.
But the best is 1.bandana, 2.tiger stripe, 3.no face paint that is the best big boss for me.

For the camos you can make the olive drab, desert, DPM and I think that should be it those are the best. But I think you should do only the tiger stripe(with bandana and without) because you can’t change the camos in game so the water camo and the snow one aren’t gonna be that good. Good luck with the camos hope you will release it before 2011.

Can you give any updated pictures and did you make the textured harness because everything I saw doesn’t mach the big boss harness I don’t know any character that has that kind of harness. By the way what camos, face paints will you make?

Release it like an new’s year special haha:lol:
Can’t wait to play with snake I’ve played every Metal Gear Solid on the PSX,PS2,PC,PSP,PS3
and now in JC2 I absolutley love the story of the MGS’s and to play as Big boss on JC2 that would be great.

Haaaa SOLID SNAKE. Great and the best version the one from sons of librety wow can’t wait for you to release the two skins please release the big boss skin too. I am a very very big fan of Solid but the big boss face looks more like him. Wow SOLID SNAKE and here I tought no one would do a Solid snake skin:cheese: I still play MGS Substance 2(snake tales, tanker) on my PC and I had problems putting it on Vista but now it works like a charm.

i don’t mean to be rude in saying this but this skin is too skinny. i just downloaded this mod and i was really impressed with it but after a few seconds of sneakan and using the revolver i realized he is practically a rail. BIG boss is big, guys; super buff, even. check out this video here to see what i mean http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AollIhssWNI&feature=fvst
he definitely needs some muscle on him or i won’t be able to enjoy mgs: just cause 2

You should see snake in Peace Walker way bigger then in snake eater he is BUFF. But beeswax skin is super it is impossible to do an better skin in JC2 so it is great. I to tried to do an big boss skin but it is crap compared to Beeswax’s mod of big boss.

its not done yet, i recently removed ricos boots and give him some military boots.
still have to add some more detail to the normal map, and im still looking for a good backpack because the straps dont look to well where the jacket starts.
i also added some long hair in his neck but im not sure yet if it looks ok, ill post some screens of it later.
and i cant release it yet, i first wanna complete it 100%

I don’t know with the models so I don’t think I can help you by the way why do you need an backpack snake doesn’t have one?
Maybe if you see it on the other mods then tell me how to find it and the name of the model but I haven’t seen any characters with snake like harnesses.

And can you post if it isn’t a problem the updated Big boss skin pictures.

I understand but I don’t know which character model has that kind of pack or if any body has that kind of pack in JC2 but I am surely mistaken.:cheer:
I don’ know with the models I don’t even know where to look up how the model looks like I hope that onter people will help I will ask d4amon he’s a great modeler.

Will you release your skin alot of time past since your last post can you release some pics of the updated snake, you have all the models are there any problems? Release the tiger stripe with the bandanna and tiger stripe without bandanna(snake in virtous mission and snake eater mission) and that is it. Because you can’t change the camos in game so it is no use for the other camos and tiger stripe is his main camo you can even see it when you use the naked camo(shirtless) in MGS 3 he has tiger stripe pants.

nah i didnt, im just busy at the time with ripping models/textures from the twin snakes.
now we just need a importer for jc2, but i dont think there ever will be.
not much people seem to be interested in modding jc2.

I joined this forum just so I could tell you that I am really looking forward to this skin. When I first started looking at mods I was already looking for a Peace Walker FOXHOUND Uniform to put on Rico.

Unfortunately I do not know digital art or programming to help you, can only cheer you on!

Are you still working on this skin? If you are can you post some pictures.

I rely like to play as Big Boss on any console, but I hope you will release your skin soon can’t wait to play with naked snake on my PC. Heck I am still playing MGS 3 Substance on my PS2 and off course Peace walker on my PSP:cheer:

All of your created skins look very nice and you should definitely upload them (or at least one). MGS is one of my favorite franchises and lots of other Just Cause 2 players would like to use your skin in the game.

Come on BeeswaX please post your Big Boss skin I can’t wait to see what you did with the hair and boots. Is it any good?

Release your skin it’s great please let us play with an epic hero!:cheese:

Gelieve te helpen ons!!!
